Lost City Apollo Found at Stonehenge (Photos)
lifeinthefastlane.ca — Could Stonehenge be home to the mythical Lost City of Apollo? Highly acclaimed archaeologist Dennis Price, noted for his startling discovery of Stonehenge ’s lost alter stone near a roadside in Berwick St James last year, believes he’s found the infamous Lost City of Apollo in the land near Stonehenge.
zaibatsu- 880 diggs
- digg it
- 11Heather, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20The UK won't let you digg in the grassy fields surrounding it, so how will we ever know more about this civilisation? Hope that the Lost City of Apollo area is allowing exploration.
- thebaron2, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I would imagine that with enough evidence - ground sonar, etc... - showing that something large and potentially very important was under there, that the UK would make an exception and allow a very supervised, careful excavation of some of the surrounding area.
Then again, I've only been to the UK once and it wasn't for very long, so maybe I'm way off here. Anyone more familiar with the policy over there that can offer some insight?- Barbega, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Im sure Tony Robinson will be there by the weekend

theyll allow it if Time Team (tv show) get hold of it.. theyll dig up anything..
- a woodhenge exposed by unusually low tides was unceremoniously ripped apart and several old oaks were felled so they could build a life size 'model' for the television audience

http://www.channel4.com/history/microsites/T/timeteam/archive/2000seahenge_controv.html - ngmcs8203, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6Bit off topic... but I guess I'm not the only using digg from time to time instead of dig when typing.
- djm101, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Won't let you dig...unless of course you're building the A303 road right next to it.
http://www.stonehenge-avebury.net/Photos/StonehengeAir.jpg- knobidy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Its a bypass. Bypasses just have to be built!
- adejenkins, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3the a303 road has been a road/right-of-way past Stonehenge for many, many centuries.
- MagicCake, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Did you just spell dig with two Gs? Digg is just a website, dig is what you do in the ground...
- thebaron2, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I would imagine that with enough evidence - ground sonar, etc... - showing that something large and potentially very important was under there, that the UK would make an exception and allow a very supervised, careful excavation of some of the surrounding area.
- Philluminati, on 10/10/2007, -11/+4I've said this before and I'll say it again. People think the road than runs by Stone Henge ruins it. I disagree, it's the other way around. The A303 should definitely be two lanes there.
- meatmcguffin, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4They should certainly make the current road into the lane for slow, gawping tourists and make a second lane for faster cars fed up with gawping tourists :P
I never understood that road anyway. It's near enough to stonehenge to get a good view and, seeing as the barrier stops you getting too close anyway, you could save money by driving past it slowly rather than paying to go in and see it slightly closer up.

"Lost City Apollo Found at Stonehenge"
Then in the FIRST sentence of the description:
"Could Stonehenge be home to the mythical Lost City of Apollo?"
Wait, didn't you just tell me that they found it? Moron.- thebaron2, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18It also makes it seem like the photos included will be of Apollo itself, or at least the evidence behind the theory.
Instead it's 4 photos of Stonehenge that everyone's seen before and 1 pic of a creepy guy with long hair and gargoyles. - norman619, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1Looks like they let the interns post this.
- REsplin, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5In Soviet Russia, headlines suck at ***** people.
- drakenlot, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4lol, that one was the first to make me laugh
- thebaron2, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18It also makes it seem like the photos included will be of Apollo itself, or at least the evidence behind the theory.
- metapop, on 10/10/2007, -0/+24what a joke... as mothman said, the headline is wrong, and the photos are stock photos of stonehenge, not secret passageways leading to the lost city of apollo.
- mothman13, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5High five!
- Bricks, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11DO NOT try to hack his computer and steal the secret map to Apollo, because those gargoyles with ***** you up!
PS: Thanks for the post, I love Indiana Jones fanfiction - effektz, on 10/10/2007, -6/+1irCreepy
- Petrarch1603, on 10/10/2007, -1/+17if this lost city of Apollo is so infamous, how come there is no wikipedia entry for a lost city of apollo?
- REsplin, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo%2C_Pennsylvania
because it's not lost - 1ofMany, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Yeah, I looked too. No dice.

- dmunkey, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7buried for misleading title, there ARE photos.... of stonehenge
- ayeroxor, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5"noted for his startling discovery of Stonehenge’s lost alter stone"
Alter stone? Nice. Contact me if your editing position becomes open soon, which it should... - aelias, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9If it's so infamous and legendary, why have I never heard of it?
- workingnonstop, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3what was so bad about it? or did you mean famous?
in·fa·mous
1. having an extremely bad reputation - albatross5000, on 10/10/2007, -3/+2bury this
- jackdubious, on 10/10/2007, -2/+0For some reason I thought the story was going to be about how the Apollo moon missions had found a lost city at Stonehenge. I gotta lay off that weed!
- phrstbrn, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0No no no no. The druids lived there.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU3H1Um4Ju4 - Laqrhead, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I found the city! It's in Pennsylvania!
http://www.map-your-town.com/city/pa/apollo - birdman1169, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Jibber jabber ***** like most of the ***** people dig up.
- HanSolo69, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I could be an acclaimed archaeologist too if i happened to look in the right place. It doesn't take much skill to make a great discovery...it's usually just dumb luck.
- drakenlot, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Now all that's left is the Lost City of Atlanta
- mrsmegz, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Spoiler Alert!!!
This is the original settlement of the 13th Tribe.- BossKey, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Thank god...you just know there has got to be a Starbucks there.
